14th January – Ribeye steak, chips and roasted vine tomatoes

Ingredients:

• Steak
• Chips
• Vine tomatoes
• Groundnut oil
• Salt and pepper

Heat up the oven to around 180 degrees C and once upto temperature put the chips in. I sprinkled some chip seasoning on the chips before putting them in. Prepare the steak by pinching any fat and pushing it into other areas of the meat and then season with salt and pepper. After the chips have been in for five minutes put the vine tomatoes into the oven on a foil lined baking tray with a light drizzle of olive oil. To cook the steak get a frying pan very hot and add the groundnut oil (this is better for high temperature use, such as steaks and stir frys). Put the steak in and cook to your liking, allow at least a minute on either side to keep the flavours inside. Once the steak is cooked, take it off the heat and allow to rest for around five minutes. Either use the top oven if you have one or place between two sheets of tin foil.

Check the chips and the tomatoes; the chips should be nearly done and the tomatoes’ skin should have opened and the stalks will have started to brown off a little.

Once the chips and tomatoes are cooked and the steak is rested you can plate up. Add a sauce or some wholegrain mustard to go with the steak. I did try to make a red wine and shallot sauce to go with the steak but it messed up right at the end and so I ended up just having a dollop of balsamic wholegrain mustard instead. I shall attempt the recipe for the sauce again in the future and will not follow the last instruction that fubared it!
